[nvda] mouse movement and speech synths [was: working hungarian language of NVDA]

Josh, please start a new message when starting a new topic, rather than replying to an existing thread which is totally unrelated.

I'm also very much for this mouse movement idea, although Windows does actually have a mouse movement keystroke mode in-built (never used them though, so can't comment on it much). It would probably have to be a toggled mode of the numpad, which might be a bit of a pain. Hmmm. The windows key or alt+shift is an option, but some keyboard dont' have a windows key, although fewer and fewer now.

possible or not, but maybe you could make dectalk access32 or a special USB version of ESpeak and lock ESpeak or Dectalk into NVDA so that you'd have a synthesizer on your USB stick along with NVDA.
Any commercial software is out of the question for licensing and cost reasons. Even if we could distribute the software free, we would probably have to pay for an SDK license. This would also defy the open, free nature of NVDA somewhat. Creating a USB version of ESpeak would be a great option, but we're not sure how to pull that off yet, as SAPI5 requires that the synthesisers be added to the registry and doing it otherwise requires writing our own audio code for ESpeak.
